A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

And reddit still don't give a shit. Just shows how much they care about the community.

I honestly don't care whether or not reddit (the company) gives a shit. I just want users to realize that reddit deserves to be replaced by something more open and user focused.

Im surprised they havent just performed takovers of the private subreddits and installed new mods.

Maybe they have but are doing it at a slow pacing, either because its manual or because it may attract less attention.

They have. I assume you haven’t seen the r/adviceanimals post yet?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I haven’t. But now I’ve seen a couple. I believe they did /r/tumbler or something dirty too.

It’s a shame. Totally antithetical to their culture they (Reddit) started and grew with as a freedom of speech platform.

They've been running away from their culture of free speech since 2008. The only direction they have ever moved has been in the opposite direction.

I expect most of the "popular" subs (like the one you mentioned) aren't ones I have ever been aware of or cared to be aware of.

I wasn't aware either, but it was mentioned on Lemmy somewhere
